Gate Houses
Hanan, Sally, Noor & Nawrase
A creation, a building, a check point, an entrance, a façade, a representational figure. All of the previous terms are representations of what a gate house can be.
A gate or screen creating a passage way that will introduce what will be at the end of it. But how does it conceive its character? Is it a replica of its form? Or is it distinct and unique from its’ building?
The use of materials and details creates its physical and social context portraying the type of the building. The roof, window, door, and any other aspect define and characterize the gatehouses’ stature.
Discovering and observing the signs and symbols that are located on the gate house one can find out the purpose of the assembly it is gating.
